That’s great. Your son will have a blast. Our regional is 2 weeks before worlds. Not much prep time. We’ve won Rookie All Star and Engineering Ecxellence. Hoping for Chairman’s this year. Not sure how competitive our robot is this year. Very little testing.

I’m not looking forward to the 19 hour drive. Nobody else likes pulling a trailer so I’m the key driver.

What regional are you attending? We’re going to Oklahoma in a couple of weeks. That was our back up plan! Our robot is pretty good but we were completely mauled by a couple of them. You can definitely see a difference in robots with lower/higher funding. There were two robots that almost brought tears to my eyes because of their beauty alone! LOL! We’re not there yet! Very inspiring, though!

Good luck to your team and be a safe driver! Pulling those things is always a challenge.
